have been scheduled, beginning
with Statesboro Aggies Saturday
and ending with Riverside Thanks

STOCK GOES

Mercer's stock received an un

news of Captain Fletcher’s injury
was recelvoed. The Bulldog leader
wrenched his knee jr. a scrimmage
against the freshmen eleven and
will hardly be able to play against
Mercer this week. Since Fletcher
is one of the twines of stengtli on
the defense, local fans believe that
the Orange and Black will stand
a much better chance with Captain
John out of the line-up.
Some of those spectators out at

Coach Carson, assisted by Mr.
Smith with the scrubs, has been

Field practice has been followed by

Knute Rockne's coaching school

Since practice started he has been
hindered by unseasonably hot wea

coolness has put new pep in all.

there is a “nigger in the woodpile”

Batting Punch
Main Reliance
of Three Rivals
BY ROGERS HORNSBY
Champion Batsman of National
League.
In dealing with the offensive side
of the teams contending for the
1924 world series X find three clubs
with a terrific wallop and two
teams that resort to the tricky,
choppy style of hitting. The Giants
Robins and Yankees carry a mighty
punch. They are "cave men” hit
ters.
The Pirates and Nationals, while
lacking the long distance drive,
have hitters who worry the pitcher
and inflelders.
In batting I consider the Giants
the most perfectly balanced team.
A balanced team consists of batters
who work a pitcher for walks, who
can bunt, hit-and-run and drive put
of tjie park. McGraw has such a
team.
In the first place Ornh is an ideal
lead-off batter. Frisch and Young,
who follow, are mighty fast, know
how to bunt, how to Hit with the
runner / and hum their drives
through the infield.
A pitcher doesnt face three suc
cessive, harder right-handed hit
ters than Kelly, Jleusel and Wil
son.
If the Giants win they will turn
the trick through their batting
power.
ROBINS HARD
HITTERS
The Robins also possess a terri
fic wallop. They have three solid
lefthanded hitters in Wheat, Four
nier and Griffith. Stock and Brown,
particularly the latter, hit hard
drives. Andy High and Johnny
Mitchell, at the top of the batting
order, become base runners through
short hits. Mitchell, a hard man to
pitch to. gets many bases on halls.

fierce dumping caused the rapid
substitution of three of his oppon
ents. Savitz seems to have a
flight edge for the other end.
” For the baekfield there are a
number of likely candidates. Gill
man and Powell are practically as
sured of places and seem likely to
surpass their work of last year.
Evans and Dunaway are showing
up well at quarter. Stelling, Sch
neider, Hill, Murphy, and Hunter,
with still others, are putting up a
merry scrap for other places in tho
baekfield. From present Indica
tions Statesboro is in for a warm
welcome when it comes to Au
gusta Saturday.
The Y'ankees are of the same
style. They crush their opponents
with their long hits. All of us are
familiar with Ruth's driving. Meu
sel, Dugan, Ward and Sehang will
worry any pitcher. Pipp is not far
behind Ruth when it comes to get
ting distance to his drives.
If the Yankees oppose either the
Giants or Robins. I wouldn't be sur
prised to see each game decided on
long-distance hitting, perhaps a
home run to be the decisive punch
because there are many home-run
hitters on the teanls.
The Pirates seldom explode a
vicious attack. I believe they have
won more games in our league this
season by one and two runs than
any club.
PIRATES ARB
FAST
The Pirates will he dangerous as
base runners. In Carey l hey have
I the cleverest base runner in our
league. Maranville, Cuyler, Barn
hart and Bigbee are sass and trou
blesome on the bases. All of their
hitters meet the ball on the hit
and-run and they get the extra
base by going from first to third on
singles because they get the jump
away from first base.
Where the Giants and Robins
feature the toe-hold at the plate
the Pirates may resort to the
squeeze play or the bunt to get the
winning margin.
Washington, from my observa
tions, is very similar to Pittsburg
in this respect, with Harris, Rice,
Judge and McNeely wide awake on
the bases.
A series between Pittsburg and
Washington should result in close
scores. The Giants, Robins and
Yankees, if they win. should turn
the trick by hitting to the fences.
Rhame, Henderson, Dueker, Bray,
Woods and McCarter.
Five of last year's team are back
and In fine form. Three men from
the Wofford Fitting scrool team of.
last year are counted upon to add
strength to the team. Rhame, who
played last year, is at Carlisle and
wili likely cause tho opposing teams
much trouble this season.
There are 30 men on the squad
and it is not known nt this itm«
just who will start Friday, ns sev
eral new men are likely to displace
the veterans.
The spirit of the team Is excel
lent and the boys are out to win
the prep school championship of
the state.
